Re: memory test |
I can't be the oldest person here, can I? But I clearly recall saving up my allowance and buying "Greatest Hits of 1964". If I remember right, it had a little selection of Motown and lots of bubble-gum pop. I think my second was one of Peter Paul and Mary's, and soon it was Dylan, and then on down the road.

Re: memory test |
Older than me, but mine was a Greatest Hits, too. I forget the name, though I still have it (in storage); it has Delaney and Bonnie, Melanie, and Bread on it.
That and Diana Ross and the Supremes Greatest Hits were the two first albums I had on my own.
My best friend had the show album from Hair. We played it over and over in her basement in 6th grade.
Also I used to make tapes from the radio of my favorite songs, so I'd have mixes of things like Crocodile Rock.

Re: memory test |
I'm up there with you. With my very first earned cash I headed over to the local hi-fi shop (they didn't have mega stores like Tower in those days) and bought "Jazz Impressions of a Boy Named Charlie Brown" by The Vince Guaraldi Trio (1964), my initial jam heroes. After that it was all downhill with that evil rock music.

Re: memory test |
The Charlie Brown Suite was the only cd my kids would fall asleep too. I kept trying different music and nothing worked till Miles Davis Kind of Blue. One of them said "Hey this isn't Charlie Brown" but that was it.
